The City of Vancouver has announced the winners of 17 new street food locations from among 800 applicants. We should start seeing new vendors on the street by July 31. While I love Japadog, I’m excited about the change because Vancouver should have a more vibrant street food scene.  The vendors offer international flavors including Chinese, Japanese, Greek, etc. I am particularly excited about the Southern BBQ and satay sticks.

Below is a complete list of the new street food vendors and their location:
